Kinetiq's Autonomous Validator Management System

What is StakeHub?

StakeHub is Kinetiq’s autonomous validator scoring and stake distribution system. It helps users stake smarter on Hyperliquid by tracking validator performance and automatically moving stake to the best ones.

It powers our liquid staking token, kHYPE, and is built to make staking safer, more efficient, and more decentralized — both for users and for the network.


Why It Matters

Staking should be simple and smart. With StakeHub and kHYPE:

  • Collect all staking rewards passively

  • Your stake is spread across the best validators

  • No manual validator selection required + continuous optimization of delegation

  • Everything happens automatically — no action needed from you

  • And it’s all transparent and on-chain

StakeHub turns staking into a passive, professional-grade experience — with no extra work required from users.


How It Works

StakeHub watches how validators perform in real-time. It gives each validator a score between 0 and 100 based on how well they’re performing. The higher the score, the better the validator.

These scores directly affect how we delegate stake. We rebalance automatically, so stake is always going to the top-performing validators — not just once, but continuously.

This means:

  • You don’t need to pick validators manually

  • Your stake avoids underperforming or risky validators

  • Your staked is only directed to to the best performing validators


How StakeHub Chooses Validators

StakeHub ranks validators using five key categories:

  • Reliability – Are they online, responsive, and consistently producing blocks?

  • Security – Have they been slashed? Are their systems safe and well-managed

  • Economics – Do they offer fair fees and stable rewards?

  • Governance – Do they vote on proposals and stay active in the network?

  • Longevity – How long have they been active, and do they keep their software up to date?

We combine all of this into one score to get a full picture of how trustworthy and useful each validator is.


Smart Rebalancing System

Validator performance evolves. StakeHub ensures your stake does too.

Performance Monitoring

  • 24/7 scoring updates

  • Detection of underperformance or slashing

  • Automated alerts and score adjustments

Delegation Adjustments

  • Gradual reallocation to top-performing validators

  • Removal of degraded validators

  • Addition of new, high-potential entrants

Rebalancing Frequency

  • Triggered by significant score changes

  • Emergency rebalancing for critical validator failure

  • Designed to minimize disruption while optimizing yield and safety

Risk Controls

  • Stake never over-concentrated

  • Geographic and operator diversity enforced

  • Prioritization of decentralization alongside performance


Built for a Growing Ecosystem

Hyperliquid is still early — the validator set, network activity, and available data are evolving fast.

Because of that, the way we score and delegate will also evolve over time. StakeHub is built to grow with the network. We’re actively working with other teams and validators across the ecosystem to improve the dataset, add more context, and keep our system fully up to date.

As Hyperliquid matures, so will our validator insights — making StakeHub even smarter, safer, and more accurate over time.


On-Chain Oracle: Open and Verifiable

StakeHub’s validator scores and recommendations are available on-chain. Anyone can see them, verify them, and use them — not just us.

If you're building:

  • A new liquid staking token

  • A staking dashboard Or anything that involves choosing validators

You can plug directly into StakeHub’s data to get trusted, real-time insights.
